Friendly reminder that "No ethical consumption under capitalism" doesn't mean "you are absolved from all guilt over buying from a shitty company," but that even "good" corporations are still implicated in an exploitative system.
Obviously, however, we also need to maintain the crucial nuance that people who can't afford *not* to buy from le shitty corporation are victims as well.

Good idea: organized action

No Data Center Monterey Park organizers – working in tandem with the grassroots racial justice group San Gabriel Valley (SGV) Progressive Action – held a teach-in and rally that drew hundreds of participants, knocked on doors, and distributed flyers on busy streets.
They emphasized how the computer systems facility would strain the power grid, drive up energy rates and create noise pollution. A petition quickly amassed nearly 5,000 signatures. All the materials were shared in English, Chinese and Spanish – a concerted effort to reach Monterey Park’s diverse populace, which is two-thirds Asian and one-quarter Hispanic.
